Little as you are

before there was a name for it
you were scared of her
had to put your weight and
all the laws weight upon it
to keep that bottle plugged
now at the windows of the sanitarium
she's understanding now
that the waistcoat pricks and their
barrister hair are shakin
at just a glimpse of her power
and every paper tiger finds it's
perfect fire
every door was locked gets kicked
does it make you feel
little as you are
go and tell your senator
that you're gonna have a scar ...does it make you feel
small and in the way
they chewed through all the shadows and theyre coming
man makes a lousy god he makes a jealous god
you know a mother love's a better love by far
to build your temple on
you can keep the trophies you passed around
but the illusions done
go on and make a hole
your betters are comin for you
get used to losin son
